Hitting Middle
George Carlin goes into rehab for alcohol and Vicodin over-use, disproving the autopilot thinking that a person has to hit bottom before they do something. For a rational approach to overcoming addictions, visit Stanton Peele.

It gets murky down there... How do we know he wasn't at the bottom? The audience he mocked in Vegas a couple months ago (MGM?) might disagree.

Crid's got a point. I'm sure Liz Taylor doesn't think she's hit bottom either, even though she's been living there for years. I know someone who works at Cedars Sinai who had to peel her fat ass up off the floor during one of her many hospitalizations.

Yeah, same with Liza this week. For my whole adult life, every sentence out of Minelli's mouth has sounded like she's about to burst into tears, , kind of like that one board op at KCRW.

Go here, watch the column on the right and just keep tapping "reload." You'll be busting your buttons with pride. (hattip Reynolds)
